Martin Armstrong - The Hidden Economics Behind the Wars! Escalation Ahead?

Is the West going broke? In this interview we spoke with financial forecaster Martin Armstrong, founder of Armstrong Economics, about the growing global sovereign debt crisis, war spending, Europe, Japan, the US dollar, gold, bonds, and the future of financial markets. Armstrong explains why he believes the global bond sell-off could continue, why Japan or Europe could become the first major sovereign debt domino, why he remains more bullish on the US dollar than many expect, and when he sees gold potentially turning higher. He also discusses escalating geopolitical tensions involving Russia, Ukraine, NATO, Iran and Israel, the impact of war on government finances, the rise of AI and autonomous warfare, and why his computer models point toward major financial and political turning points ahead. Is the current debt-driven economic system approaching a global reset? Martin Armstrong shares his outlook on what investors should be watching next. 🗓️ Recording date: August 31, 2026 📖 Chapters 00:00 Intro 01:11 – Russia, Ukraine & the Risk of a Wider War 03:29 – Why September Could Be a Major Turning Point 04:01 – The Decline of Political Unity in the West 09:44 – Russia, Ukraine, Iran & Israel: Can Peace Be Achieved? 11:33 – Nuclear Weapons: Are They Still a Deterrent? 13:36 – Can the US & Europe Afford Their Military Commitments? 16:25 – Regime Change, Putin & the Russia-West Conflict 19:47 – The Global Bond Sell-Off: What Breaks First? 20:47 – Why Europe May Be More Vulnerable Than the US 24:48 – Why the US Dollar Could Actually Strengthen 27:06 – Dubai, Oil & the “3D Chess” Being Played 28:46 – Could Japan Trigger the Global Debt Crisis? 32:29 – Why the Dollar May Not Collapse 36:34 – Outlook for Gold 40:33 – Is the Stock Market Actually Overvalued? 41:53 – The AI ​​Bubble vs. the Dot-Com Bubble 43:31 – AI, Drones & the Future of Autonomous Warfare 45:07 – 2027 Turning Point TRIANGLE INVESTOR SOCIAL MEDIA👇ℹ️ 🌐 Website: https://triangle-investor.com/ 🌍 Substack: https://triangleinvestor.substack.com/ (subscribe for free) 🌍 X (Twitter): https://x.com/capnek123 🎵Spotify: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show... 🌍BSKY: https://bsky.app/profile/triangleinve... 🌍Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Triangle-I... 🌍LinkedIn:   / lucijan-valkovic   ✉️Business inquires: triangle-investor@outlook.com _________________________________________________________________________ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: The content provided by Triangle Investor, including but not limited to its website (www.triangle-investor.com), newsletters, articles, podcasts, social media posts, and marketing materials, is for informational and entertainment purposes only.It does not constitute financial, investment, legal, tax, or professional advice.
